TECHNICAL FIELD

The present invention provides novel anti-infective agents. Specifically, the present invention provides an HCV polymerase inhibiting compound, and a composition comprising a therapeutically effective amount of said compound. The present invention also provides a method for inhibiting hepatitis C virus (HCV) polymerase, a method for inhibiting HCV viral replication, and a method for treating or preventing HCV infection. Processes for making said compounds, and synthetic intermediates employed in said processes, are also provided.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

Infection with hepatitis C virus (HCV) is a major cause of human liver disease throughout the world. More than 85% of all infected individuals become chronically infected. Chronic HCV infection accounts for 30% of all cirrhosis, end-stage liver disease, and liver cancer in the United States. The CDC estimates that the number of deaths due to HCV will increase to 38,000/year by the year 2010.

While initially therapy consisted of interferon alone, the combination of interferon alpha-2b with ribavirin for either 24 or 48 weeks is currently the most efficacious approved therapy for the treatment of chronic HCV infection. However, there are many adverse side effects associated with this therapy (flu-like symptoms, leukopenia, thrombocytopenia, and depression from interferon, as well as anemia induced by ribavirin). Furthermore, this therapy is less effective against infections caused by HCV genotype 1 which constitutes about 75% of all HCV infections.

Based on the foregoing, there exists a significant need to identify compounds with the ability to inhibit HCV. The present invention provides novel anti-infective agents which are HCV polymerase inhibitors.

The compounds of the invention can comprise asymmetrically substituted carbon atoms. As a result, all stereoisomers of the compounds of the invention are meant to be included in the invention, including racemic mixtures, mixtures of diastereomers, mixtures of enantiomers, as well as individual optical isomers, including, enantiomers and single diastereomers of the compounds of the invention substantially free from their enantiomers or other diastereomers. By “substantially free” is meant greater than about 80% free of other enantiomers or diastereomers of the compound, more preferably greater than about 90% free of other enantiomers or diastereomers of the compound, even more preferably greater than about 95% free of other enantiomers or diastereomers of the compound, even more highly preferably greater than about 98% free of other enantiomers or diastereomers of the compound and most preferably greater than about 99% free of other enantiomers or diastereomers of the compound.

In addition, compounds comprising the possible geometric isomers of carbon-carbon double bonds and carbon-nitrogen double are also meant to be included in this invention.

Individual stereoisomers of the compounds of this invention can be prepared by any one of a number of methods which are within the knowledge of one of ordinary skill in the art. The se methods include stereospecific synthesis, chromatographic separation of diastereomers, chromatographic resolution of enantiomers, conversion of enantiomers in an enantiomeric mixture to diastereomers and then chromatographically separating the diastereomers and regeneration of the individual enantiomers, enzymatic resolution and the like.

Stereospecific synthesis involves the use of appropriate chiral starting materials and synthetic reactions which do not cause racemization or inversion of stereochemistry at the chiral centers.

Diastereomeric mixtures of compounds resulting from a synthetic reaction can often be separated by chromatographic techniques which are well-known to those of ordinary skill in the art.

Chromatographic resolution of enantiomers can be accomplished on chiral chromatography resins. Chromatography columns containing chiral resins are commercially available. In practice, the racemate is placed in solution and loaded onto the column containing the chiral stationary phase. The enantiomers are then separated by HPLC.

Resolution of enantiomers can also be accomplished by converting the enantiomers in the mixture to diastereomers by reaction with chiral auxiliaries. The resulting diastereomers can then be separated by column chromatography. This technique is especially useful when the compounds to be separated contain a carboxyl, amino or hydroxyl group that will form a salt or covalent bond with the chiral auxiliary. Chirally pure amino acids, organic carboxylic acids or organosulfonic acids are especially useful as chiral auxiliaries. Once the diastereomers have been separated by chromatography, the individual enantiomers can be regenerated. Frequently, the chiral auxiliary can be recovered and used again.

Enzymes, such as esterases, phosphatases and lipases, can be useful for resolution of derivatives of the enantiomers in an enantiomeric mixture. For example, an ester derivative of a carboxyl group in the compounds to be separated can be prepared. Certain enzymes will selectively hydrolyze only one of the enantiomers in the mixture. The n the resulting enantiomerically pure acid can be separated from the unhydrolyzed ester.

The present compounds may exhibit the phenomena of tautomerism or structural isomerism. As the drawings within this specification can only represent one possible tautomeric or structural isomeric form, it should be understood that the invention encompasses any tautomeric or structural isomeric form, or mixtures thereof, which possess the ability to inhibit hepatitis C, and is not limited to any one tautomeric or structural isomeric form utilized within the drawings.

In addition, solvates and hydrates of the compounds of the invention are meant to be included in this invention.

When any variable (for example R₁, R², R³, m, n, etc.) occurs more than one time in any substituent or in the compound of the invention or any other formula herein, its definition on each occurrence is independent of its definition at every other occurrence. In addition, combinations of substituents are permissible only if such combinations result in stable compounds. Stable compounds are compounds which can be isolated in a useful degree of purity from a reaction mixture.

The term “pharmaceutically acceptable prodrug,” refers to those prodrugs or zwitterions which are suitable for use in contact with the tissues of patients without undue toxicity, irritation, and allergic response, are commensurate with a reasonable benefit/risk ratio, and are effective for their intended use. “Prodrugs” are considered to be any covalently bonded carriers which release the active parent drug of formula (I), (II), (III), (IV), (V), (Va), (Vb), (VIa), (VIb), (VII) or (VIII) in vivo when such prodrugs is administered to a mammalian subject. Prodrugs of the compounds of formula (I), (II), (III), (IV), (V), (Va), (Vb), (VIa), (VIb), (VII) or (VIII) are prepared by modifying functional groups present in the compounds in such a way that the modifications are cleaved, either in routine manipulation or in vivo, to the parent compounds respectively. Prodrugs include compounds wherein hydroxy, amine, carboxy, or sulfhydryl groups are bonded to any group that, when administered to a mammalian subject, cleaves to form a free hydroxyl, amino, carboxy, or sulfhydryl group, respectively. Examples of prodrugs include, but are not limited to, acetate, formate, and benzoate derivatives of the hydroxy, carboxy and amine functional groups in the compounds of formula (I), (II), (III), (IV), (V), (Va), (Vb), (VIa), (VIb), (VII) and (VIII); and the like.

In accordance with methods of treatment and pharmaceutical compositions of the invention, the compounds can be administered alone or in combination with other antiviral agents. When using the compounds, the specific pharmaceutically effective dose level for any particular patient will depend upon factors such as the disorder being treated and the severity of the disorder; the activity of the particular compound used; the specific composition employed; the age, body weight, general health, sex, and diet of the patient; the time of administration; the route of administration; the rate of excretion of the compound employed; the duration of treatment; and drugs used in combination with or coincidently with the compound used. The compounds can be administered orally, parenterally, osmotically (nasal sprays), rectally, vaginally, or topically in unit dosage formulations containing carriers, adjuvants, diluents, vehicles, or combinations thereof. The term “parenteral” includes infusion as well as subcutaneous, intravenous, intramuscular, and intrastemal injection.

Parenterally administered aqueous or oleaginous suspensions of the compounds can be formulated with dispersing, wetting, or suspending agents. The injectable preparation can also be an injectable solution or suspension in a diluent or solvent. Among the acceptable diluents or solvents employed are water, saline, Ringer's solution, buffers, monoglycerides, diglycerides, fatty acids such as oleic acid, and fixed oils such as monoglycerides or diglycerides.

The antiviral effect of parenterally administered compounds can be prolonged by slowing their absorption. One way to slow the absorption of a particular compound is administering injectable depot forms comprising suspensions of crystalline, amorphous, or otherwise water-insoluble forms of the compound. The rate of absorption of the compound is dependent on its rate of dissolution which is, in turn, dependent on its physical state. Another way to slow absorption of a particular compound is administering injectable depot forms comprising the compound as an oleaginous solution or suspension. Yet another way to slow absorption of a particular compound is administering injectable depot forms comprising microcapsule matrices of the compound trapped within liposomes, microemulsions, or biodegradable polymers such as polylactide-polyglycolide, polyorthoesters or polyanhydrides. Depending on the ratio of drug to polymer and the composition of the polymer, the rate of drug release can be controlled.

Transdermal patches can also provide controlled delivery of the compounds. The rate of absorption can be slowed by using rate controlling membranes or by trapping the compound within a polymer matrix or gel. Conversely, absorption enhancers can be used to increase absorption.

Determination of Biological Activity

HCV Polymerase Inhibition Assay: Biochemical IC₅₀

Either two-fold serial dilutions (fractional inhibition assay) or a narrower range of dilutions spanning the IC50 of the inhibitor (tight binding assay) of the inhibitors were incubated with 20 mM Tris-Cl pH 7.5, 5 mM MgCl₂, 50 mM NaCl, 1 mM dithiothreitol, 1 mM ethylene diamine tetraacetic acid (EDTA), 300 μM GTP and 150 to 300 nM NS5B (HCV Strain 1B (J4, Genbank accession number AF054247, or H77, Genbank accession number AFO 1751)) for 15 minutes at room temperature. The reaction was initiated by the addition of 20 μM CTP, 20 μM ATP, 1 μM 3H-UTP (10 mCi/umol), 150 nM template RNA and 0.4 U/μl RNase inhibitor (RNasin, Promega), and allowed to proceed for 2 to 4 hours at room temperature. Reaction volume was 50 μl. The reaction was terminated by the addition of 1 volume of 4 mM spermine in 10 mM Tris-Cl pH 8.0, 1 mM EDTA. After incubation for at least 15 minutes at room temperature, the precipitated RNA was captured by filtering through a GF/B filter (Millipore) in a 96 well format. The filter plate was washed three times with 200 μl each of 2 mM spermine, 10 mM Tris-Cl pH 8.0, 1 mM EDTA, and 2 times with ethanol. After air drying, 30 μl of Microscint 20 scintillation cocktail (Packard) was added to each well, and the retained cpm were determined by scintillation counting. IC50 values were calculated by a two-variable nonlinear regression equation using an uninhibited control and a fully inhibited control sample to determine the minimum and maximum for the curve. Tight-binding assays were performed on those compounds exhibiting IC50 values less than 0.15 μM in the fractional inhibition assay in order to more precisely measure the IC50 values. Retained cpm were plotted vs. inhibitor concentration and fit to equation 1 using non-linear regression (ref. 1) to obtain the IC50 values. Retained cpm=A[sqrt{(IC₅₀+I_(t)−E_(t))²+4IC₅₀E_(t)}−(IC₅₀+I_(t)−E_(t))]  eqn 1. where A=V_(max) [S]/²(K_(m)+[S]); It=total inhibitor concentration and Et=total active concentration of enzyme.

RNA Assay

Replicon cells were plated at 3×10³ cells per well in 96-well plate in DMEM medium containing 5% fetal calf serum. At day 1, culture medium was removed and replaced with fresh medium containing eight serial 2-fold dilutions of compound. The final concentration of DMSO in medium was 0.5%. The untreated control culture was treated in an identical manner except no inhibitor was added to the medium. Plates were incubated in a CO₂ incubator at 37° C. On Day 4, 100 μl lysis buffer (RTL) (Qiagen) was added to each well after removal of culture medium. RNA was purified according to manufacturer's recommendations (Qiagen RNAeasy) and eluted in 200 μl of water. The HCV RNA level was quantified from a portion (5 μl out of 200 μl) of the purified RNA by real-time RT-PCR method. The primers and probe are derived from specific sequence in the 5′UTR region. RT-PCR reaction was performed at 48° C. for 30 min, followed by 40 cycles set to 95° C., 15 s; 54° C., 30 s; and 72° C., 40 s. The percentage reduction of HCV RNA in the presence of compound was calculated and the 50% inhibitory concentration (IC₅₀) was calculated by non-linear regression analysis using the Prism program.

When tested by the above method, the compounds of the present invention inhibit replicon production with EC50's in the range of 0.002 μM to >100 μM.

Cytotoxity Assays

Cytotoxicity assays were performed in replicon cells. Briefly, HCV replicon cells were plated at 3×10³ cells per well in 96-well plate in DMEM medium containing 5% FCS. At day 1, culture medium was removed and replaced with fresh medium containing eight serial 2-fold dilutions of compound. The final concentration of DMSO in medium was 0.5%. All experiments were performed in duplicate. The untreated control culture was treated in an identical manner except no inhibitor was added to the medium. Plates were incubated in a CO₂ incubator at 37° C. On day 4, stock solution of the tetrazolium salt, MTT (4 mg/ml in PBS, Sigma cat.# M 2128) was added to each well at 25 μl per well. Plates were further incubated for 4 hours, treated with 20% SDS plus 0.02 N HCl at 50 μl per well to lyse the cells. After an overnight incubation, optical density was measured by reading the plates at 570/650 nm wavelengths.

When tested by the above method, the compounds of the present invention exhibited CPE reduction with TC50's in the range of 6.6 μM to >100 μM.

Cell culture assays for agents targeted toward hepatitis C are not yet available because of the inability to produce infectious virus in a sustained cell line. The hepatitis C virus genome encodes a large polyprotein, which after processing produces the necessary functional components to synthesize progeny RNA. Selectable cell lines that produce high and sustained levels of subgenomic HCV RNA (replicons) have been derived from human hepatoma cells (Huh7) as described in the references above. The mechanism of RNA replication in these cell lines is considered to be identical to the replication of full length HCV RNA in infected hepatocytes. The compounds and methods of this invention are inhibitors of HCV RNA replication in the replicon assay systems described above. This forms the basis of the claim for their potential as therapies in treating disease resulting from hepatitis C viral infection.
